For other uses, see T. rex (disambiguation). Tyrannosaurus (/táµ»ËrÃ¦nÉËsÉËrÉs/ or /taÉªËrÃ¦nÉËsÉËrÉs/, meaning tyrant lizard, from the Ancient Greek tyrannos (ÏÏÏÎ±Î½Î½Î¿Ï), tyrant, and sauros (ÏÎ±á¿¦ÏÎ¿Ï), lizard) is a genus of coelurosaurian theropod dinosaur. The species Tyrannosaurus rex (rex meaning king in Latin), is one of the most well-represented of the large theropods.
By far the largest carnivore in its environment, Tyrannosaurus rex was most likely an apex predator, preying upon hadrosaurs, ceratopsians, and possibly sauropods. Some experts, however, have suggested the dinosaur was primarily a scavenger.
